Today, we offer you a little focus on guests like no other, ie Tokyo Rickshaw!
If Japan is particularly fond of idols, atypical groups also know how to emerge! This is the case of Tokyo Tickshaw which is a group composed of Shafu !
But what are Shafu?
Shafu is the Japanese word for rickshaw pullers. Some districts, such as Tokyo's Asakusa, have a multitude of them that take you on a walk to allow you to discover popular neighborhoods of the Edo period. Tokyo Rickshaw was born from the desire to discover this little-known profession although it is at the heart of traditional Asian tourism. The goal is to promote their activity especially since we know that the 2020 Olympic Games will take place in the land of the rising sun. Formed in 2015, this group continues to be talked about through music and shows. Accumulating appearances on TV, radio and internet, they have repeatedly participated in collaborations with Japanese personalities.
